This document discusses integrating Alluxio with Dask for processing large mass spectrometry imaging data. Alluxio is used as a distributed caching layer via its FUSE POSIX API to provide standardized access to datasets from Dask. This allows Dask to process data in parallel across compute nodes without needing to load full datasets into memory. Initial results found a 10x speedup when reading cached data from Alluxio versus directly from S3 storage each time.
